Charlie Asher is a pretty normal guy with a normal life, married to a bright and pretty woman who actually loves him for his normalcy. They're even about to have their first child. Yes, Charlie's doing okay - until people start dropping dead around him, and everywhere he goes a dark presence whispers to him from under the streets. Charlie Asher, it seems has been recruited for a new position: as Death.

It's a dirty job. But, hey! Somebody's gotta do it.

This story is as wacky and perhaps even a little more heartfelt than the other Christopher Moore books I have read. Not quite as funny as Bloodsucking Fiends or You Suck, but Charlie is a sweet guy and I couldn't wait to find out how things turn out for him. If you've read some of Moore's other books, a few familiar faces pop up as a nice added bonus. All in all a fun read!

WELCOME TO OUR BOOKRING FOR A DIRTY JOB BY CHRISTOPHER MOORE!

This ring is underway as of August 15, 2007.

You will be sending the book to the person who appears after you in the list, so you need to PM them to get their address!

It''s not a race, but please read and send the book on as speedily as you can, other people are dying to read it too.

Please journal the book once you have received it (so we all know where it currently is) and again when you have read it (so we know what you thought of it!)

If you''re the last person on the list the book comes back to me.

Charlie & Company are on their way to visit Goddess-Of-Fire in Springfield, MO.

Received in the mail yesterday. I have a couple books in front of it but I will get to it as soon as possible!

Even though I found Charlie to be a little annoying at times, I still enjoyed this book. The only other Christopher Moore book that I've read (so far) is Lamb, and while I don't think this one was as funny as Lamb I still reccommend it.
Thanks for sharing!

Mailed 9-12-07

I recieved this in the mail yesterday and started it right away. I am already hooked!

Arrived today - will start reading it soon!

This was a funny and poignant novel about finding life in death. I liked the characters Charlie Asher, Sophie, Minty Fresh, and the Emperor of San Francisco. I especially liked how Charlie finds courage to face his fears as he both confronts the "sewer harpies" and learns how to be a good father to Sophie.

RELEASE NOTES:

Mailed to chambejd

This arrived on Monday. I'm looking forward to reading it! Thanks!

I finished reading this in the *early* hours of this morning. I really, really enjoyed the book, but the ending was kind of sad. I can't believe that Charlie never realized who the Luminatis was. I'll get this in the mail asap.

My boyfriend read this book while I had it as well and he really enjoyed it too! Thanks for sharing it with us!

I mailed this book out to caridad this morning.

Sadly, this bookring seems to be Lost in Space. RIP little book.
